What to Expect on Your First Visit

We you've done some research, and think dental implants might be a good option, please set up an appointment with our office so we can determine together, what the best treatment plan will be for you. Our goal is to make you feel relaxed and comfortable and we're here to listen and answer any questions you will have on your first visit. To help speed the process please bring the following with you on your first visit if applicable:
-referral slip and x-rays from your referring dentist, if given to you.
-A list of medications you're currently taking
-If you have dental insurance, please bring any forms or insurance cards
-You can also fill out your patient registration, and medical history from our web page, http://www.pugetsoundperio.com/
We will complete an in depth Medical and Dental Health History, and a thorough examination measuring bone loss, teeth bite, oral cancer screening, TMJ, and examine other signs of Periodontal disease. We'll take Periodontal x-rays to see disease not otherwise visible, (unless your referring Doctor has submitted these x-rays). Usually an approximate fee can be determined at the initial visit, but on occasion further treatment must be completed before the final treatment plan can come to light. We pride ourselves on working with patients to set up the best Financial planning available, and our philosophy of practice is to treat as conservatively as possible to reach treatment goals. When you think you're ready for that perfect smile, contact our office, and we'll walk you through one step at a time. (206)400-0800
